rwalters reminded me with his amazing looking thigh post a few days ago I was out of boneless skinless thighs.
So ran to RD to grab a case. I'll normally grind up 20lbs to seal and then seal up the other 20lbs whole thighs. I still have a bit of ground up chicken so this was sealing all whole thighs.
Figured I'd do a formal count this time for no sane reason other than you folks seem to appreciate the finer "random" things in life :becky:. 4 bags in that case and I did 8 thighs per vacuum bag. Took 10 bags of 8 thighs and I had 4 thighs at the end to put into random bags.
So if my geology is correct that is 84 thighs.
At 40lbs means averaging 4lbs per bag and averaging 8oz per thigh.............dammit I went crosseyed again :shocked:
Didn't even have to have my wife check the math.......more than once.........:twitch:
Only bummer is chicken prices are up right now (especially wings) so the case was $1.5/lb. When I bought them last it was $.80/lb. But still cheap than any grocery store or costco/sams.
